TTR (Toyota Team Racing) is a bit of a joke option.. leather seats, air con, and a badge on the gearshift console... not one real "racing" component involved ....
 "The TTR Limited Edition MR2 Spyder has the additional features of black leather interior trim, air conditioning and TTR emblem.It has a recommended retail price of $48,988*, which represents $2700 worth of additional value over standard MR2 Spyder." http://www.autoweb.com.au/cms/A_101176/title_Toyota-Launches-TTR-Limited-Editions/newsarticle.html  

What's the console look like? When we were looking at buying seen a few Spyders with leather seats so I'm interested in what Pacific to look for cause so many change seats and all oz Spyders came with a/c factory!
Does your have a badge like the TTE ones with a limited edition number?

No number, just a TTR logo.. can't take a phote ATM cause the car is up at Road and Track, Ipswich..

Waiting is waiting....
last word from workshop -
"box is done
engine /wiring conversion part way
new clutch + machined flywheel fitted
shocks sitting here
towards end of next week i hope"

Don't hold your breath..

I'll try not to. (exhales..)

I wish I lived closer :(
 
 

Thanks for the thought.. I'm just gonna hafta go with the wait..
 
EDIT: 20th March - We are up to-
 

"The ECU worked out OK. no immobilizer key needed. great!!
 
The Traction control and Stability Control lights are on  because those system don't work without the SMT. Are you OK for us to permanently disable those lights?. As per prior emails, the car drives as it should and ABS appears fully functional
 
We are working on some small changes to make a better reverse selection "feel". The part i wanted from Toyota is still 10 days away, so we are trying to improvise
 
The tailpipe is damaged/hanging down because the back part of the exhaust has been damaged at some time. i suspect it was due to the extra "low". With your approval i'll sort that out."

 
 
 
A functioning manual, no more SMT... and for anyone wondering about the TTR "badge" on the console:
 
Really just a cheap sticker ... the TTR option wasn't that speshul.
 
"black leather interior trim, air conditioning and TTR emblem"
 
Seems like that TTR badge just went wherever the dealer put it.

shifter and gearbox bits for six speed to eliminate slop and get the reverse lockout to work?

My low beam has a bluish tinge and is quite pathetic. I don't know if this is normal, but what can be done to improve low beam? Are there better bulb brands or ?
